Acorn Energy Co-op

Solar Hot Water can save you money on your heating bill

 

Did you know that a solar hot water heater is one of the most energy efficient improvements you can make to your home--that can eventually pay back its installation cost?

​

The Co-op is pleased to help you take the next step toward renewable energy!

​

A range of top quality Solar Hot Water Systems are now available to our members through the Co-op. One special arrangement, with manufacturer, Stiebel-Eltron, can give Co-op members a 30% discount for all system components from this premier manufacturer of SHW systems.  For most systems, this will result in about $1,300 to $1,400 in savings. In addition to this remarkable offer, you can take advantage of Vermont incentives and a 30% federal income tax credit.

​

Would you benefit from a solar site assessment?

 

With the Co-op's expertise, we will help you determine what the best system for your home may be. You can receive a free initial solar site assessment from an experienced Co-op representative to give you an idea of your home's potential for solar. After an initial assessment, for just $75 one of the Co-op's REVermont-certified partner installers will conduct a more in-depth site visit to your home that includes a feasibility analysis, a system estimate, and an estimate of return on your investment. If you decide to purchase one of these systems, the $75 home visit will be deducted from your cost.

​
